In #1928 we added support for GCC 4.8 but we don't continously test if it's working. In this change I'm adding a github actions job to test compilation on GCC 4.8 for interpreters and Fast JIT (JIT/AOT might be added in the future).
The compileation is done using ubuntu 14.04 image as that's the simplest way to get gcc 4.8 compiler. The job only compiles the code but does not run any tests. I don't think we need that though at that stage.
